In a large mixing bowl, combine the light coconut milk and unsweetened almond milk, stirring to blend them together.
Add the chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt into the milk mixture. Whisk thoroughly to ensure that the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.
Stir in the shredded unsweetened coconut for added texture and coconut flavor.
Transfer the mixture into a large jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
Once set, give the pudding a good stir before serving to ensure the creamy consistency.
Serve the coconut pudding in individual bowls or glasses. Top with fresh berries and a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for a delightful crunchy contrast.
